*I’m wiping tears from my eyes* My grandfather is in his 90’s and is a WWII veteran who fought in the Pacific Theater. He was a gunner in the US Army and suffered hearing loss and from Malaria. Growing up, he suffered from the odd bout of Malaria from time to time and my grandmother lovingly cared for him. I don’t get to see him as much as I would like due to the fact that I live far across the state, but I am always ever humbled by his service and it led me to pursue a career (although short-lived due to a bad knee injury) in the military.
